Schnittpunkt paralleler Welten 5

An artwork is given as a material arrangement, yet its perception is not uniform. Bodily position, attention, memory, context and consciousness all shape which structures come to the fore, how they are connected and what meaning emerges from them.

The five-part series Schnittpunkt paralleler Welten examines this difference between the physical conditions of a work and the various forms of its experience. Cosmos, Matter & Relations provide the shared frame of reference; through the Fields of Experience, that field is accessed differently each time. The parallel worlds of the series therefore do not describe separate universes, but simultaneous possible perceptions of the same material constellation.

In Sheet 5, stable contours dissolve almost entirely into a field of black particles. A dense zone in the upper area passes into finer dispersions; isolated arcs and fragments appear between them as possible signs without settling into a stable figure. The composition makes particularly clear how attention continually generates new relations between figure and ground from density, repetition and open space.

The intersection named by the title is not a point of complete agreement. It arises where different perceptions are referred to the same material counterpart. The artwork becomes a shared frame of reference in which different worlds of experience can become perceptible, visible, comparable and articulable, and enter into dialogue with one another.
